@tyil The millions came to github, because it made it cool do share code with git. Its proprietary nature was very much not advertised, and "git is decentralized, you are not locked in" — except when you are. And github filled up actually missing pieces in git. Code review, issuetracking, easy hosting (no need to configure a bare repo — github hides that from you). Irony: there are many people who came there to get independence from proprietary VCS’es and platforms. @blacklight @humanetech
